100% Local - Yes, United Way

You’ll like this: When you give to Northfield Area United Way, your money stays here. It helps fund 28+ programs in the Northfield area – all of them local services, helping people here at home.

Together, we feed our neighbors, help with housing, guide at-risk kids. We fund healthcare for the uninsured. We come through for victims of fire, flood, and domestic violence when they need help the most.

Every donor makes that happen.

Here’s what makes it even better: Every dollar of your gift goes directly to programming. Because corporate donations cover all administrative costs plus programming, we can put 100% of individual gifts directly to work.

Northfield Area United Way has raised nearly $135,000 in the past two months. It’s a great start: We’re at 30% of our goal to raise $450,000 by the end of the year. Will you help us get there?

Here are a few ways your money can work for our community:

Give 100 meals to a family. Your gift of $65 feeds a family of five for a week.

Give 100 nights of shelter. Your gift of $200 houses a woman and two children for a month.

Some of Northfield’s homegrown programs have become models for other orgs across the region and across the country. Healthy Community Initiative. TORCH: Tackling Obstacles, Raising College Hopes. Northfield Arts Guild’s A+ Arts Club. Bridges to Kindergarten – funding completely by Northfield Area United Way. It’s a lot to be proud of.

We’re proud to work with local businesses, too – including Just Food Co-op and Dokmo Ford, who helped us spread the word and raise money.
